In the Linpack test, the Spectrum outscored all other phones in the multi thread test. The phone didn't fare quite as well in the single thread test, however.

In the An3DBench, the Spectrum came in just behind the Droid Razr to earn the second place spot, but all of the higher end phones are VSync limited there anyway. In the An3DBench XL test, the Spectrum scored very well in the Emperor's New Clothes and Magic Island tests. It achieved a respectable score in the Flower Power test as well, but didn't perform quite as well as some phones in this particular component of the test.

The Spectrum also performed very well in the SunSpider JavaScript benchmark, earning third place behind the Samsung Galaxy Nexus and the Motorola Droid Razr.
